Libya · 1915 · 10 Centesimi
This stamp is an overprint on an Italian definitive stamp (Italy Scott #104) featuring King Victor Emmanuel III. The original Italian stamp was surcharged with the new value and the word 'LIBIA' in black ink for use in the Italian colony of Libya. The base stamp is carmine and yellow.
Issued during the period of Italian colonial rule in Libya, this overprinted stamp reflects the administrative practice of adapting existing Italian postage for use in its territories.
